How will the money be doubled?
- Suppose you invested ₹ 10,000 in Kisan Vikas Patra Scheme. According to the annual interest of 7.5% given by the government, you will get ₹ 750 at the end of the first year. Which when added to your original amount of ₹ 10,000 will become ₹ 10,750.
- Now interest is not on ₹ 10,000 in the second year. Rather it will be charged on ₹10,750 because interest of ₹750 has been added. Now by the end of the second year with the help of 7.5% interest you will get approximately ₹ 806. And the principal amount will become ₹11,556.
- Similarly. Every year the total amount of your investment increases. And next year you get interest on that increased amount.
